Things Are Not Good Poem by Yohan Confectioner

Things Are Not Good

Things are not good
your girlfriend
is sleeping
with someone else

you pause
on the typewriter
to let it sink in

life is not good
she won't tell you
she's found someone else
it's for you to assume

you pause
to scratch your beard
it's grown long and unkempt
just like your relationship

your girlfriend
has found someone else
for dinner
for lunch

but worst?
for morning breakfast too
after a night
full of intimacy

nothing is wrong
she will tell you
but all of it
is wrong

you slip away
from her
from yourself
from being

you trust less
friends
family
loved ones

things are not good
love is hard
as a cold
stone.
